    OMG, i just finished watching the first 10 minutes of the American Idol show tonight and I just realized how freaking gay the show is. The performance show on Tuesdays aren't that bad, but the results show they have on Wednesday is terrible.

    For those who dont watch it, they have these stupid group singing bits on Wednesday. It looks like some sort of performance you see on a cruise ship or something. They also have these stupid Coke and Ford commercials where they have another singing bit. Then they drag out the performance results for a damn half hour.

    I think the final contestants this year are some of the worst so far. Last year's contestants were 10x better. The show's were also more enjoyable last year.

    I think this contestants George Huff and Jennifer Hudson are the most annoying of all the contestants. George looks like he is acting half the time whenever he hears any praise. He looks like he is about to faint.

    I know there is someone here on the BBS who knows George, so please take no offense. I just think he appears a bit too fake.

    This year most of the contestants are so damn fugly( err Diana, Fantasia, Jennifer, Amy). At least last year some of the woman singers were decent to look at.


    For those above reasons I think I have seen my last episode of American Idol, or at least until they vote off George, Jennifer or Diana. (I'm almost too embarrased to say that I know their names.)

    Rant over.:cool:

    Why do guys say that crap? Post a picture of yourself so I can determine if you're worthy enough for me to spare 2 secs of my time to read your posts or not

    I don't really watch the show that often, but I have never heard Randy say anything negative about any black contestant. Coincidence? Maybe. Or then again, maybe i just missed it.

    I disagree about George. I don't think that he is acting at all. I totally think that he is genuinely happy to receive his praise and I think that he seems to be one of the few that are actually enjoying the experience for what it is. He's got a great twinkle in his eyes that cannot be faked IMO.

    I think the Macy Gray chick, the Hawaiian chick and George will be top 3.

    I work evenings so I rarely get to see the show, but I love it when I can see it.

    Yeah, let's judge them all on their looks and disregard talent altogether. I'm sure it will appeal to the coveted "shallow and superficial moron" demographic. :rolleyes:

    That's a bigger demo that you'd probably like to believe.

    How do you think Britney or J.Lo made it, because of their "vocal talents"? :D

    I watch it - it's kind of cool just to hear people sing classic songs. I couldn't believe who they dropped yesterday - Amy's performance was much better than some of the others, especially the redheaded kid's performance.

    I suspect a conspiracy - they didn't want to go down to only two guys left so soon in the competition.

    All it takes is the Funk Brothers backing up all these wannabes to expose just how bad they really are.

    I caught a few clips of the show with the Funk Brothers doing the backup after a buddy told me how awful it was. Marvin Gaye must be rolling in his grave.

    This show, just like all reality television, is tailor made for morons.

    Therefore, anyone who watches reality television is a moron.

    You're fired!

    The Apprentice is pretty much the only reality show worth watching...

    Generalizations, like all cop-outs, are tailor made for morons. Therefore, anyone who uses a generalization to insult others is a moron.

    Yes, I am aware of the irony.

    No offense taken, because honestly, I kinda thought the same thing about George back when I first met him. But trust me, it's all 100% genuine. He really is like that. It's crazy, I know, but George is really a one-of-a-kind character. All the smiling, the seemingly general happiness at just being alive, its all real. That's just how George is. He's one of the most unique people I've ever known.

    I guess I can understand where you're coming from though. Sometimes it can't be helped. George is the kind of person some people just have to meet to believe.
